Values Totem
What core values propel your team's performance? How do these values manifest in your team's behaviors? Strengthening your team's values empowers creative thinking and the consistent application of aligned behaviors and actions.
What you'll do
Taking inspiration from totems, revered by ancient tribes for their gods, our team-building activity mirrors this hierarchical reverence. Teams rotate through activities focusing on individual and collective behaviors linked to corporate values. Each team of 8-12 members pieces together these behaviors to complete their value patchwork.
Ultimately, teams present their findings to the "tribe's leader" who awards them with a plaque representing the corresponding value. What's intriguing and revealing is the subsequent discussion: teams collectively decide where each value plaque should be positioned—lower, middle, or top—reflecting its importance in the corporate hierarchy.
